Ooooops ... Chris Forcier

On Monday we wrote that Chris Forcier was transferring.

We got the story from Brian Dohn's blog at the Daily News.

I just got word that Chris Forcier, who spent last week exploring transfer options, will take part in UCLA's first spring practice today.

"Chris called me last night and we spoke, and I'm excited he'll be at practice today," UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel said.

Does this mean we have to take back everything we wrote about C-Force?

Hopefully, he has reconsidered

and will give us a “Drew Bennett” option at WR. He could provide a formidable triple threat with the deep ball, the reverse, and the occasional option pass.

Dohn reported

that he was at practice with WR gloves on

Or maybe

no other school wanted him at QB…

But hey, what do I know. I’m just the 800 lbs bruin in the room.

Logic

When I was in college, I took a course called Logic. Right before the final, I talked to the professor who told me that I was getting a A-, and that I didn’t need to take the final because I would need a perfect score on the final to get an A in the course. I took the final. I got the A. I highly suspect that I didn’t earn a perfect score on the final. Deep down, I think the professor liked my attitude and rewarded it.

This situation reminds me of mine.

I applaud C-Force for taking on the challenge in the face of adversity. Maybe the coaches and fans have written him off, but he hasn’t written himself off yet. Maybe the threat of transferring will light the fire he may have lacked last year. I say go for it. If his dream is to be UCLA’s starting QB, he can make it happen. Red Dragons.

Great story

about the Logic course.

Even better, I think, if Forcier comes back to help, in whatever capacity he can, to use his tremendous athleticism for the benefit of the team.

If so, I think it reflects well on Chris, and could be an important point in his life, let alone football career.

Is Coach Embree Coming back?

Dohn’s is reporting that Embree will be a part of the program but doesn’t know much beyond that. I don’t think he has a job, does he?

Forcier was working out with the WR

and looked pretty good, caught everything that was thrown his way and looked awfully quick. Hopefully it works out

He’s an athlete… Now if we can just get OR to do the same thing

by impaulv on Apr 2, 2009 5:50 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

That would be nice. All it seemed OR was doing today was standing around in his black shirt watching the other QBs practice. I did take off about 30 minutes early so maybe he got some work in at the end, but it still seems a complete waste of his talents
